Anne Field, a director of Axiom, started working with cemetery operators in the 1990's but the company has grown from that start to be a global leader in cemetery systems.

Axiom's solution delivers cemetery-specific systems that integrate with Sage's ERP system. So, common back-office functions such as CRM, finance and HR are covered with Sage while the CMS software is built by Axiom and integrates." Anthony Caruana

Axiom Business Systems: Leading the Future in Cemetery Technology

January 13th, 2015

“Cemeteries hold the DNA of generations, the stories of our ancestors, and the human race. These hallowed grounds are to be cherished as the ‘treasure trove’ of our human journey since the beginning of time”, begins Anne Field, Director and Co-founder, Axiom Business Systems. As part of the legacy and history that cemeteries offer to their communities, they need to manage voluminous archives of paper maps, hand written documents and index cards, which can be centuries old and, in some instances, rapidly deteriorating. As ‘custodians’ of information that relates to the heritage and family lineage of their client families, today’s cemeteries, sometimes referred to as ‘Cities of the Dead’, are focusing on servicing the needs of the living, and their vibrant communities. As such, the modern cemetery client is expecting to have ‘finger-tip’ access to pertinent information, which is leading to a rapidly emerging consumer expectation that cemeteries be up to date with trends in technology and culture.
